Holly Komorowski - Local Real Estate Agent Review Detail

It was great working with Holly, Tenille and all HBH team. The process was very clearly laid out and the contacts Holly provided to assist in the preparation for sale were outstanding. We achieved a good result in a difficult market.

Professional, honest, reliable and empathetic to the huge task of moving interstate.

We had a horrid time with another agent.  We rang Holly who immediately took over the sale of our home.  Holly and her team provided us with a professional and honest service completely focussed on selling our home.  She made the sale process easy.  We highly recommend her as the agent of choice in the North.

Holly and her team were fantastic. So sensitive, helpful and efficient. Selling a long held family home is a big deal and they really made it as easy as could be.

Fantastic to work with Holly and her amazing team. Incredibly responsive, great communication, went out of their way when I needed specific assistance and made the process very easy. Thank you!!

Great communicators. We live interstate and they efficiently and without fuss helped to get our place ready for sale. The whole experience of selling was made easy and we were very happy with the price we got.

Holly and her team were fantastic, and we were thrilled with the results.  They were a pleasure to work with and we would highly recommend Home by Holly!  Thanks team.

It's been a smooth journey in the recent sale of my place having Holly's team as the sales agent. Their team provided me with effective and timely communication throughout the process and useful advice when needed: Right from the first day of engaging their service, they provided me a clear picture of what to expect and the timeline for moving things ahead. They were patient with my questions and always able to respond to my emails within a few hours. They were also quick in finding solutions when things do not go as planned, e.g., the cleaning company had their steam cleaner broken hence needed to engage another carpet cleaning company with a very short turnaround time, which they acted on swiftly while keeping me informed.

It was a pleasure working with Holly and her team to sell our home. Holly and the team were professional, thoughtful and honest throughout the process. The team is passionate about Canberra and connecting people to homes. A rare quality amongst her peers and we would recommend the team to anyone looking for an agent.

Holly and her team were incredibly helpful and warm, and made the daunting task of selling a house much less overwhelming. The team are available whenever you have a question and provide solutions quickly. We went to auction which was a new experience for us, but Holly navigated us through the process with her expertise and we achieved the outcome we wanted. We are so impressed we have advised a family member to engage Holly's services for their house sale next year.

The team at Home by Holly were fantastic to deal with. The level of communication they provided made me feel confident and up to date with what was happening. They dealt with all the small details which made the process for me so simple.

My wife and I came across Holly while we were looking for a property in the inner north of Canberra. Holly had several properties which she showed to us even organising private inspections on a couple of occasions. We found Holly to be the consummate professional who assisted us with all our enquiries and communications with the vendors. She did a great job for her clients with her friendly and encouraging manner. i would strongly recommend Holly to anyone considering selling their house.

This is our third successful sale with HomebyHolly and we had a great experience. Holly and her team are creative in their approach, well informed, punctual, friendly and responsive. Their marketing is superior to other local agents and attracted buyers out of the area. We are very happy with the price we achieved and how Holly and her team worked with us.

Holly and her team are absolutely brilliant. Unceasingly professional and courteous with great advice and customer service. They also deliver excellent results. We couldn't have asked for anything more. Highly recommend!

Holly and her team are efficient, responsive, pragmatic and warm. Every aspect of the sale of my home was reassuringly smooth and stress-free. I could not have been in better hands!

Holly and Emily did an excellent job in selling our Braddon Heritage property in an uncertain market. 

Holly was professional, knowledgeable, enthusiastic and supportive throughout the process. We would highly recommend Holly and her team.

Holly and her team were fantastic. Professional, efficient and had a clear understanding of the market.

But simply you can’t do better than Holly and her team. In a market that feels like it’s changing week to week, you need someone who knows how to appeal to buyers and who can give advice, right when you need it. Holly kept me informed and made what could have been a stressful experience easy and manageable.

Holly and her team were professional, efficient and effective. Holly had a very professional approach, and was kind and honest in her communications. She kept us really well informed about the progress of our sale, and gave realistic and strategic advice when we got closer to the final negotiations at a time when the market was slowing. I was very grateful to have her experience and calm approach to help us navigate our sale.

Holly and her team were great! Trustworthy, knowledgeable and easy to work with. We appreciated their attention to detail and highly recommended the HBH team!

Holly and her team are exceptional operators - professional, thorough and responsive. Their ability to build rapport with prospective clients and communicate clearly is definitely their strength. The reason I went with them was how much they stood out when I bought a property off them a few years ago. They are a real standout given they are down to earth, knowledgeable, thorough, reasonable, not pushy at all. You don’t feel like you are selling a house but rather a client working on a project.

Slling my home with Holly was a very pleasant experience.  Holly is professional, caring and friendly and has a great knowledge of the market.  Holly made me feel relaxed and comfortable that she would achieve a good outcome, and she did.

Loved working with Holly and her team. Low on ego and high on integrity and efficiency. A refreshing change!

Our experience with Holly was positive, professional and effeicient as well as very pleasant. All commitments were met in a timely manner and graciously, even though the sale took longer than we anticipated.  Holly managed our expectations when there was a change in market conditions, but always made us feel we were in charge of the process.  
There was ongoing communication and feedback from Holly and her colleagues and they were always respnsive to our requests and queries.
Deciding to move house can be a daunting  experience, so we really appreciated that the sale itself  was managed so smoothly.
We would recommend Home by Holly to others who are selling their property.

A delight to deal with.  Listened to and understood my requirements and met them to a "T". Professional, responsive and fun to work with.

Holly proved to be very skilful, professional and trustworthy during the sale of our property and was backed up  by a great team. Would not hesitate to  
recommend her and her team to any future vendors

Holly and the whole team were a delight to work with, and made selling our unit a breeze. They had such great insights on the local area and did their research on comparable properties in the area so they were able to pitch the property to show all its best features.

It was a pleasure working with Holly to sell our home. Her professionalism, dedication and authenticity got us not only a great result but ensured we felt involved and listened to through the process. I have long admired Holly’s marketing and was not disappointed. Her styling partners, photographers and advice made all the difference. Would highly recommend.

Holly is a breath of fresh air in the real estate business. She brings a personal touch to the whole experience, being professional and prompt. As a buyer, I have been to many property inspections, met many real estate agents that are pushy & insincere but not Holly. I would recommend Holly and her team to others.

Holly and her team were organised, helpful and on the ball. They knew the market, delivered great marketing material and kept me up to date on progress throughout the sale. Highly recommended

We have recently sold our second property with Holly. We have also attended several properties listed with Holly while in the market. The reason we listed our first property with Holly is after meeting her at an open home she was friendly, welcoming and professional. Holly has a beautiful attitude and is extremely personable, she is set apart from other Real Estate firms as she is down to earth, genuine and humble. Since listing with her for a second time she has again exceeded our expectations.

We found the whole process stress free. Holly was open and honest the whole way through the process. We really do highly recommend Home by Holly.

Holly & her team have successfully marketed, auctioned and settled a 3 bedroom penthouse apartment in Reid for our business in 2021. 

Their advice, guidance and marketing campaign was exceptional and as a result we achieved an amazing price. 

We have gone on to engage Home.byHolly to sell several more properties, as they are an absolute pleasure to work with.

Holly made selling our property an easy & stress free experience. Holly & her team were very professional & friendly throughout the whole process, we were kept informed with everything along the way & were very happy with the end result. Thank you Holly!

Holly and her team are terrific. We have bought, sold and rented with the Home by Holly team. Our experience over many years with Holly and the team has been excellent. They are genuine and down to earth and bring a strong community sense  and expertise in the Canberra market to all that they do.  Would seek them out to work with them again.

Selling a long held family home was turned into a wonderful experience by Holly and her exceptional team of Tenille and Bianca, and all other support staff. From the beginning I knew I was dealing with a professional, knowledgeable and ethical group. And they were fun! Everything, including various costs and commission, was clearly explained. I wanted a quick campaign and Holly put together an excellent program and continued to respond to my many questions throughout. A timeline was agreed, photographs organised, building inspection arranged and constant updates and reports were provided after each open house viewing. An auctioneer was engaged and the house was sold on the day for a very satisfactory amount. The whole process went without a hitch and this agency was a joy to work with. Can’t recommend them highly enough. Many thanks.

Advice received made this a great, trouble free process, with an excellent result. The home.by holly team (led by Holly and Bianca) help ensure the property was very visible in the market; their deep experience in the O'Connor market was clearly displayed.

I thoroughly recommend the amazing team at Home by Holly. They made the whole sales process effortless and the outcome far exceeded expectations. The exceptional support team kept me updated throughout the process and answered all my questions with lightening speed. Their professionalism, integrity, and expertise is second to none. I would not hesitate to call on the Home by Holly team in the future, as a buyer or a seller.

Tenille Paul

The palette of crisp whites set against the darker hues of the ceramic floors and the consistent pops of midnight black, imbue the home with a modern sophistication, a touch of Hollywood glamour. The front living area is a light and bright affair, with windows welcoming the outdoors within. While beyond, a sweeping open plan merges to an alfresco terrace that purveys neat lawns, stone garden walls and borders of wild, natural grasses. 

This graceful three-bedroom townhouse provides a leafy sanctuary from the nearby city and connects to nature on two sides. There is a choice of social spaces, both tranquil and light, with large windows that take advantage of the home's openness on one side. The duo of courtyard spaces are perfect for both restorative downtime and entertaining, with their easy-care meditative vibes and absolute privacy. 

Resting on a quiet, tree lined street, the home is one of a neat row of handsome townhouses. A layering of blockwork provides visual intrigue combined with splashes of colour, while a clever inverted wall, perfectly frames the entry. We love the shadow lines the slats in the window awnings make against the wall and the leafy dappling of shade across the front patio. It is an easy stroll to a variety of parklands and reserves and not far to the vibrant Gungahlin Precinct. 

The kitchen is arranged in a galley style with a window wall at one end, flooding the space with natural light. Everything is at your fingertips as banks of white cabinetry and striking black worktops coalesce with black hardware, engendering timeless appeal. There is an adjacent powder room so nobody has to traipse upstairs, a large internal laundry and plenty of extra cupboards for storage.

The intimate zone is nicely sequestered on the top level, where three elegant bedrooms brim with ample storage and share a welcoming cosiness with soft carpet, peaceful elevated views. The master suite is a generous affair, with a wall of robes and an ensuite bathroom. Two additional bedrooms centre around a family bathroom with a relaxing bathtub. Both bathrooms are finished in crisp white set against earthy browns and both have large vanities for seamless storage. 

Crace is a suburb of the Gungahlin district and shoulders Palmerston, Percy Hill, and Gungaderra Nature Reserve. The home is within walking distance of Crace Central offering a large Supabarn, independent stores and cafes, with local favourite including, The District Bar and Restaurant for a fab cous cous salad and award-winning burgers. The area is famed for its stunning natural surrounds and ample parklands. It is an easy walk to Hilltop Reserve and its playground and all the scenic trails of Gungaderra Reserve. Close to the thriving Gungahlin precinct, Lake Ginninderra, the UC, AIS and Canberra Stadium and a stone's throw from the inner-north suburbs of Lyneham and O'Connor, the home is also, a mere 20 minutes to the CBD.

The auction for this property will be held at 10:00am Saturday the 18th of January 2025 with the intention to sell on or before auction day!

This elegant two-bedder reads like a botanical oasis with its surrounding of beautiful trees and plantings, and its bountiful natural light creating a haven for both humans and plants. We love the circular window creating a halo of light and the walled surround of the balcony, gifting an embrace of enclosure. There is a natural simplicity to the balance of spaces, complimented by the interior palette…white finishes and crisp black fixtures, creating a lovely cohesion. 

Inspired by the French architect Robert Mallet-Stevens, The Broadway apartments conjure Paris with their gorgeous avant-garde style. The form gleaming in the sunshine, all white plaster with industrial steel windows. The clean lines, elegant curves and playful portal windows celebrating a spirited modernist aesthetic, feeling every bit at home amidst the significant heritage architecture of old Kingston.

Green walled pathways usher past crisp white volumes, leafy groves of ornamental pear trees…no.16 set deep within the shady development, wonderfully private and oh so, quiet. Sited across from the playing fields of St Edmonds College and flanked by Kingston Oval, the apartment feels immersed in nature, while connecting you to a myriad of boutique shopping, dining and eating experiences. Stroll to old and new Kingston, jog the edges of the Lake, swim at the art-deco Manuka pool or head to Fyshwick Markets for ample produce, vintage cheeses and armfuls of fresh flowers.

Light falls through a mix of black framed windows and sliders, entering deep into the open plan. The warm tones and texture of recycled hardwood flooring, stretching to meet whisper white walls. The deep balcony extending the lived experience, embracing the outdoors and gifting alfresco living within your own private garden room. 

Stone benchtops, white cabinetry, elongated black handles and a tiled splashback in crisp white, keep things timelessly monochromatic within the modern kitchen. And there is a relaxed conversational feel, perfect for entertaining…spilling to terrace for long lunches, romantic evening drinks. Or drawing the heavy curtains come night time, creating a cosy haven, a world away from the hustle and bustle…think relaxed evenings, perfectly curated dinner parties.

There is a duo of welcoming bedrooms, each with their own bathrooms and built-in-robes for seamless storage. Both the family and ensuite bathroom are simply appointed in white on white with floor to ceiling tiling. Throw in a European laundry, linen cupboard and basement parking for two with storage cage and you have chic inner-city living at its efficient best.

Griffith is famous for its wide tree lined streets, parklands, and lovely combo of old and new homes. The apartment is a short stroll to Fyshwick and Eyre St Market and seeded within the iconic offerings of old Kingston…think Silo Bakery, Green Square and the Durham Castle Arms Pub. It is a lovely stroll to the Foreshore with its bevy of restaurants and bars that front the Lake's edge. A scenic bike ride through wet lands delivers you to the dynamic Dairy Road Precinct and iconic Manuka is not far away. Throw in Heritage listed Manuka swimming pool, Telopea Park, a surrounding of significant cultural offerings, The Bus Depot Markets and the nearby Parliamentary triangle and you have absolutely everything you could ever need, right your doorstep. With easy access to transport, choice of public and private schools, the home, is also just a stone's throw from Capital Hill and the CBD.

Within honeyed timber floors stretch to meet crisp white walls, the whole apartment awash with sunlight, warming the interior, creating light and shadow, as it moves throughout the day. The open plan kitchen and living spilling to the enclosed winter garden or sun room, suspending you within the epic cityscape. 

Connecting the modern urban, with the historic garden vernacular, and the iconography of the bush, The Mark, extends the perfect blend of dynamic, inner-city living, with suburban feel, and immersion in nature. Nestled between the CBD and Braddon, flanked by Gorman House and the Canberra Centre, sheltered by Mount Ainslie, and looking out to the historic suburb of Reid, 501. serves up a diverse range of experiences. Walk to a myriad of shopping, dining, entertainment options, stroll to the local markets, ride or walk within reserve, it's all at your doorstep. 

This stunning three-bedroom apartment is housed within the Founders Lane development, a vibrant inner-city precinct, that combines, residential, commercial and community spaces. With a range of cafes, quirky pop-up's, rooftop barbecue, shared herb garden, private residence lounge and a connecting series of central courtyards, there are a variety of spaces to retreat or connect. Sit with friends on the architecturally designed seating, enjoying the public art on display, celebrate the city skyline with champagne, read beneath the shade of the American Elm. 

The calm, neutral palette is enhanced beautifully by the combo of tones, textures - white on white, timber, stone, soft carpets, grey ceramics - furthering the felt sense of spaciousness and ease. Attention to detail is evident at every turn, from the stone worktops, Smeg appliances, ample storage including built-in-robes to all three bedrooms, to the waterfall showers and heated towel racks. 

Arranged in a generous open plan, incorporating a study nook, the social domain is privileged by a fabulous transparency. Glass sliders can be flung open, expanding the living space to the outdoor room. Think entertaining, the table set for plenty, a feeling of being suspended within the landscape, the twinkling of emerging city lights.

The master has a wall of glass welcoming light and aspect, opens onto the winter garden and enjoys a private ensuite bathroom. Sequestered on the opposing side are two generous bedrooms that connect to a luxe family bathroom with twin basins, roomy glass shower. Bedroom two also faces north and floats within the skyline, connecting directly to the central, sunlit garden room. Both bathrooms are finished in wall-to-ceiling tiling in an organic palette of textured grey and warm oak.

The apartment is positioned on the cusp of the city, within Braddon and alongside Reid, Ainslie and just a few steps from the Canberra Centre. This whole inner-north locale is synonymous with an array of the finest eating, dining, entertainment options. It is a few steps to Gorman House Arts centre, an easy stroll to the Lonsdale scene and seconds from all the offerings of the CBD. There is a surrounding of heritage suburbs, green spaces, including the walking and biking trails within Mt Ainslie reserve. The home is also close to the ANU, the light rail and the metro city station, connecting you to the whole of Canberra.
